Sunday Soldier (3/1), Lenebane (9/2), Asa (11/2), Maggie O (6/1), Bella Bluesky (13/2), Cancan (15/2), Chicago Gal (14/1), Donso Star (18/1), Evita Du Mesnil (20/1), Milajess (22/1), Silver Vision (50/1)

Verdict

MAGGIE O showed improved form on the back of a wind op/drop back in trip when opening her account at Doncaster 31 days ago and she could be worth siding with to follow up from a 4 lb higher mark. Lenebane, who ran well behind the selection latest, is feared along with handicap-debutante Sunday Soldier. Chicago Gal is another not out of things back from a break.

  1. MAGGIE O (IRE)
  2. LENEBANE (IRE)
  3. SUNDAY SOLDIER (IRE)
